the mail-man just delivered another precious gift from 14+,i of course burst in to tears by the sheer kindness and thought-fullness of you and the beautiful wood-plaque of rocky.
you are a wonderful artist and a beautiful human being,thank you,thank you

Wow! That got there fast! I only mailed it yesterday. I am so glad you like it. I am hoping it helps heal in some small way.
Working on these pieces is actually a little cathartic for me. I think about the loves that have passed and the love they gave, or give if they are still with us. This week it has been very helpful to me. So thank you chico. You have helped me more than you know.

14+,you are simply an amazing young lady and i am so glad i joined this forum years ago to get to know so many wonderful people,who feel just like i do.

together with the first piece of art i recieved,i will treasure my sweet rockys pic forever and always.
you managed to capture his special look and although i am still in the crying stages because of losing him,i feel you honored his memory for me

OMG 14+, I've just spent a long time looking at all the beautiful pieces of art you've so generously sent your friends. You truly are a very gifted artist, have you ever thought of supplementing your income by taking orders or advertising? I'm sure you could make a fortune to help with your many kitties!

Thanks everyone. Rocky was a special boy. He deserves a special memorial.

Thanks shannon. I have thought of that. In fact it 's been mentioned here often. I have told members all they have to do is pm me and we can talk. The problems with me taking orders are my kitties and work. Well, the kitties aren't problems but you know what I mean. It does not leave me a lot of time to work on these pieces. Right now I do them at my leisure at night while watching TV. Some pieces can be done quite quickly. Some pieces take up to 50 hours to burn. If I was a tad more organized I could probably do one or two a week. Right now I'm lucky to do one every few weeks.

She is an absolute genius, the one she did of my sweet Rose is a spitting image of her, especially the eyes. It hangs in my office where I can look at her all day and I am always amazed at how she captured the eyes.

Ha!! I have to get off Pets now and get to work or the next one won't be getting done for a long time!! Then I am taking some time to do a picture of owls for one of the gals at work for a belated wedding gift. She collects owls.

The eyes are the hardest part to do. I sometimes spend hours getting them just so. I keep hoping I did them right. It's nice to know I do occasionally.

Thanks TQ and Marko. Every time I do one of these and it's posted here I see things I would love to be able to change to make it better. But it's too late. The pics are out of my hands. I hope I don't ever hurt anyone's feeling by doing a picture for them.
